20090144359 | Mobile access to internet-based application with reduced polling - Providing a service in user equipment (UE) that operates within a mobile telecommunications system involves running a client application instance (CAI) in the UE, wherein the CAI interacts with a remotely-located server application via a network by means of a protocol that includes polling. A message is sent to the server application, the message including a PUSH address that uniquely identifies the UE and the CAI within the UE. The server application stops polling activity, and instead initiates a PUSH request when there is updated information to be supplied to the CAI. The UE consequently receives a PUSH that includes the identifier of the CAI, and consequently notifies the CAI of the received PUSH. The CAI responds by sending a polling message to the server application via the network. The server application sends a response to the polling message, the response including information associated with the service. | 06-04-2009 |
